I have just done a clean install of coppermine 1.5.36 and smf 2.0.10
when I set up the bridge it for some reason will not log into coopermine at all
I have set both up on a localhost env
localhost/gallery
localhost/forum
can log into smf and create users et fine, then when I go to coopermine its not logging in, just sends you back to the login on smf eveytime
Coppermine install: http://localhost/gallery/
Bridging app install: http://localhost/forum/
Coppermine version: cpg1.5.36
Bridging app version: smf 2.0.10
BridgeManager settings:
Bridge app URL: http://localhost/forum
Relative path to your bridge app's config file: ../forum/
Cookie name or prefix: n/a
Use bridge app custom groups?: 1 tryed 0 as well
Solved
I did not change any of the settings and hoped it would all work out ok
the problem I had was under the smf settings
configuration > server settings > cookies and sessions
Enable local storage of cookies - is checked by default > uncheck this
Use subdomain independent cookies - is checked by default > unchecked this
now its all working fine
maybe because my smf install is not as the root / directory I encountered this problem
I installed them as
localhost/forum
localhost/gallery
so coopermine was not accessing the cookies etc if I had them as
localhost
localhost/gallery
there would be no problem on a clean install
Thanks for coming back and detailing your resolution.
